X Nirvana Poem by Madam Anonymous

I wish to tame the indomitable K2
It is my burning desire
I wish to reach the celestial sky
Like Notre Dame’s majestic spire

I wish to soar like a Monarch
It is my burning desire
I wish to thunder like Bucephalus
To conquer the unknown I aspire

I wish to slash through Amazon
It is my burning desire
I wish to stay untouched by evil
Pure as Sita, emerge through the fire

Nay, I crave for things undeniably immense
Vastly challenging and huge:

Decadent enjoyment of life with every sense
Nurture my mind as a peaceful refuge
Unity of intellect, sex and emotion
A life of purpose, a life of sensation

A life where,
I create large, to immortalize the human spirit
Where triumphant love rules the day
Where I enrich the circle of life
Where elegant wealth of Zari holds sway

A life where,
Labor and rectitude is rewarded
Where truth, reason and beauty reign
Where applause and sovereigns shall be mine
Where cherished ambitions remain

A life where,
‘Onward’ is the battle cry
Where for it, I will willingly die
Where life is perfect, life is complete
Where I burn with passionate heat

So that immortal, when I look back
I never wonder what I lacked
Aloft the minarets I proudly call
I have achieved Nirvana, I have it all
